good lord they're talking about ME!

Not directly, but this is a story in NY Times about how "Voter Fraud Theories" sent and promoted by blogs are easily debunked...

okay, there are definitely some conspiracy freaks out there, but there are valid reasons to investigate such as

1) why that county in Ohio (Warren I believe) locked down their building, not allowing the press to check out the vote count-like every OTHER county in the state.

2) what happened to the machines in North Carolina?

3) and why the heck CAN'T Diebold computer machines have a paper trail when other companies' machines have figured this out?

And these are just a few of the issues (not including the "have you not been adjudicated mentally imcompetent"? question in tiny print on a Florida county's registration forms) that have prodded 6 Congressman to think, hey, maybe we ought to look into this afterall.

It would be nice, if they really could have one, uniform voting system so we don't have to deal with all this mess of chads, thrown out paper, and crashing computers that have no back up or paper trail. Is this REALLY so WRONG? Obviously, to the people who want to mess with your vote, yes it is.

Peace --Alex
